This easy-to-follow recipe combines a perfectly seasoned crispy coating with a sweet and tangy lemon pepper honey glaze that will leave you licking your fingers. Perfect for game day, parties, or a delicious weeknight dinner, these wings are sure to be a crowd-pleaser.
1. Heat the Oil: In a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Chicken: In a large bowl, combine the flour, seasoning salt, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Toss the chicken wings in the flour mixture until evenly coated.
3. Fry the Wings: Carefully place the coated wings into the hot oil, working in batches to avoid crowding the pan. Fry for 6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Drain on a wire rack or paper towels to remove excess oil.
4. Make the Sauce: While the wings are frying, prepare the lemon pepper honey sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the honey, lemon pepper seasoning, and fresh lemon juice. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture comes to a gentle boil. Remove from heat and set aside.
5. Assemble and Serve: Let the fried wings rest for 5 minutes to allow the breading to set. Drizzle the warm lemon pepper honey sauce generously over the wings. Serve immediately and enjoy the perfect balance of crispy, juicy, and sweet-tangy flavors!
Pro Tip: For extra crispy wings, double-fry them! After the initial fry, let them cool completely, then fry them again for 2-3 minutes before tossing in the sauce.
